Spurs vs. Clippers Game Day Q & A: Peter Kim of The No Look Pass

For tonight’s Spurs game against the Los Angeles Clippers, who else to turn to for everything Clippers than Peter Kim of The No Look Pass. Yes the Clippers actually have fans!

Peter gives us some insight into the Clippers and what Spurs fans should look out for tonight. Please visit The No Look Pass for all your information on not only the Clippers but the Los Angeles Lakers and their homage to obscure NBA players.

1. Chris Kaman started off strong for the Clippers and actually won an NBA Western Conference Player of the Week award this season. He had a drop off recently but with the Spurs not having great centers, what can the Spurs expect out of him in tonight’s game?

Kaman played extremely well at the start of the season but was recently diagnosed with a vitamin D deficiency

which was the likely reason for his significant drop off in production.

He hasn’t returned to form just yet but the Spurs can expect Kaman to

touch the ball quite a bit. We’re uncertain which version of Kaman

we’ll see in the game but if the productive Kaman comes to play, we can

expect some decisive moves in the post, midrange shots as well as

successful passes out from double teams.

2. What is the prognosis on Blake Griffin? When can Clippers fans expect him back?

Blake Griffin is scheduled to have X-rays performed on or around the

16th of December. Recently we’ve heard word that we’re likely to see

him around early to mid January. It’s unfortunate that he is unable to

play against the Spurs considering that he played well against them in

the preseason, scoring 23 points with no turnovers.

3. What do you see as the key matchup in this game?

The

point guard matchup will be the key matchup of the game. The Clippers

have difficulty defending quick guards. They will have their hands full

trying to contain Tony Parker who was able to get to any spot on the

court he wanted during his 17 minutes of playing time during their

final matchup last season. The Spurs will have to keep an eye on Baron

Davis who has been successful attacking the basket recently.

4. Seems the Clippers tend to head into the fourth quarter and lose any lead they have. Care to explain?
